I decided to have a little and try to draw the phantom going by Hookbill’s how too, and I would like to see what he thinks of it. So, here it is.

Btw, I really like the smaug with guitar pic, cracks me up.

Interesting, what does Alien want to achieve? Is he evil? Hmm...

No, that's just his behavior. He's silly, he's funny, and kinda stupid (hope he didn't hear me... ops!), but he's definitely not evil!

Once again, great comic strip, Hookbill!

Yeah, that's quite possible... um... and we also don't know what happened to Morsul the Dark (Morsul? )...

Oh he's not evil... well... not completely.
It's probably best not to try and figure out his motivation as its just a stupid comic strip where weird stuff happens...

On the question of Alien's arms / hands. I generally work with the idea that he is like Homestarrunner in that his arms are invisible but still functional.

This weeks issue includes a special report on the Ultimate weapon...

Are you daring to suggest that Gandalf is more powerful than...Doctor Who?!

EDIT - hey, the picture's gone, now my comment is out of context.

I doubt it can be Morsul, since he is already dead

But, it could be Lalwende, since Alien might have felt threatened by her investigating the case
Strange though he would use acid, I thought his method was simply eating things, like Phantom's pets or Damrod...

btw Hookbill, I guess you were right about the comic becoming more interesting
